To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I ALBERT LEIBNER .a

This invention relates to ash trays and that the support may be connected to any piece of furniture and in different positions according to the particular piece oi furniture so as to hold the bowl and support the arm of the tray in a horizontal plane ready for use at any time.

In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a side view of an embodiment of the invention shown applied the bowl bcingshown in section.

Fig. 2- is a bottom plan view of the structure shown in Fi 9 Fig. 3 is a top plhn view of the support ng bracket and part of the arm showlng a miter-- ent position to that shown in Fig. 1.

Fig. 4 is a view' similar to Fig. 3 but showing the parts in a third position.

Referring to the accompanying drawing by numerals, 1 indicates a support of any kind, as for instance,.a table, to which the bracket 2 is secured by a clamping screw 3. The bracket 2 is provided with arms 4 and 5, arm 5 carrying the screw while arm 4; presses against the article of furniture Projections 6 and 7 are formed. on the ends of arms a and 5, projections 6v having apertures S and 9 arranged therein =at rlght angles to each other, while projection 7 has an aperture 10 ar'anged therein. The depending section 11 of arm 12 is arranged to be fitted into any of the apertures 8, 9 or 10 and held against accidental removal by the eyelet 13 formed on the extension 1 1 oi arm 12, the opposite extension 15 merging into the section 11.

The arm 12 is preferably made from wire or a rod pressed together so as to form the members 11 and 15 and also to form a loop 16 for receiving the bowl 1?, which bowl is provided with a flange 18 designed to rest on the loop 16, and a flattened bottom 19 whereby the bowl may be caused to rest on any suitable horizontal support. As shown in Fig. 1 the entire device is in position for useand'the parts are arranged so that the" bowl may be freely swung in a horizontal plane. If desired, the bo\vl 1'7 may be removed at any time without removing arm 12 or bracket 2. i

If the arrangement of thefurniture is such that the bracket 2 cannot be positioned as shown in Fig. 1 the bracket, or clamp may be arranged as shown in Fig. 3, whereupon the section. 11 projects through aperture 8. If this arrangement not satisfactory the section 11 may be arranged in the aperture 9 as shown in Fig. 4. In all these positions l'he clamping screw 3 is intended to be out .of the way while the arm 12 properly supports the bowl 17 in position.
